Summary: This camera works ok but is designed poorly. They put the pop-up flash on the top exactly where one would automatically place their left index finger to steady the camera. Consequently, this camera is very awkward to hold. Would never have purchased it if I had known this in advance.

Good camera but not as good as expected

Summary: Was expecting a great camera but got a little better than OK. This all could be from the shipping because when I got the camera the box was open and there was a little rattle in the camera. Anyway I have returned and going to go back to Panasonic Lumix.

Good but not great

Summary: I like the camera and its features. The main problem I have with it is the specialty battery pack. I used to have a camera using AAs, so there was never an issue getting more juice for it, no matter where I was.

Sony HX10V - not thrilled

Summary: I recently purchased the HX10V but am having issues with the use of the flash. As mentioned in other reviews the flash pops-up which makes it more difficult to hold the camera as it is farily compact. The more troubling issue is the brightness of the flash.

Ermm..

Summary: I've had this camera for a day and a half now. Day one: -I find out that it does not have manual focus like the hx9v -I play around with the effects which aren't as impressive as my old canon. -I try out the zoom which is fantastic. I used it to read a page from a book across the house.

It's Okay

Read Manual! Great Motions Shots!

Summary: Watched the C-net reviews and read the Amazon reviews and there was quite a few mentions of simplicity. Simple for so many features? Yes. But for the average guy like me who never takes the time to read a manual and does things through trial and error.

Great pictures, poor usability

Summary: Good points: Low light pictures are excellent making the camera very versatile compared to my old Lumix TZ3 model. The Panoramic picture facility is excellent. GPS sounds like a novelty, but it is really useful when you are travelling. Zoom is good and relatively easy to use.
